We consider optimal control of the scalar wave equation where the control enters as a coefficient in the principal part. Adding a total variation penalty allows showing existence of optimal controls, which requires continuity results for the coefficient-to-solution mapping for discontinuous coefficients. We additionally consider a so-called multi-bang penalty that promotes controls taking on values pointwise almost everywhere from a specified discrete set. Under additional assumptions on the data, we derive an improved regularity result for the state, leading to optimality conditions that can be interpreted in an appropriate pointwise fashion. The numerical solution makes use of a stabilized finite element method and a nonlinear primal-dual proximal splitting algorithm.

A generic formulation for the optimal control of a single wave-energy converter (WEC) is proposed. The formulation involves hard and soft constraints on the motion of the WEC to promote reduced damage and fatigue to the device during operation. Most of the WEC control literature ignores the cost of the control and could therefore result in generating less power than expected, or even negative power. Therefore, to ensure actual power gains in practice, we incorporate a penalty term in the objective function to approximate the cost of applying the control force. A discretization of the resulting optimal control problem is a quadratic optimization problem that can be solved efficiently using state-of-the-art solvers. Using hydrodynamic coefficients estimated by simulations made in WEC-Sim, numerical illustrations are provided of the trade-off between careful operation of the device and power generated. Finally, a demonstration of the real-time use of the approach is provided.
This work discusses the finite element discretization of an optimal control problem for the linear wave equation with time-dependent controls of bounded variation. The main focus lies on the convergence analysis of the discretization method. The stat e equation is discretized by a space-time finite element method. The controls are not discretized. Under suitable assumptions optimal convergence rates for the error in the state and control variable are proven. Based on a conditional gradient method the solution of the semi-discretized optimal control problem is computed. The theoretical convergence rates are confirmed in a numerical example.
This paper is concerned with the Proportional Integral (PI) regulation control of the left Neu-mann trace of a one-dimensional semilinear wave equation. The control input is selected as the right Neumann trace. The control design goes as follows. Fir st, a preliminary (classical) velocity feedback is applied in order to shift all but a finite number of the eivenvalues of the underlying unbounded operator into the open left half-plane. We then leverage on the projection of the system trajectories into an adequate Riesz basis to obtain a truncated model of the system capturing the remaining unstable modes. Local stability of the resulting closed-loop infinite-dimensional system composed of the semilinear wave equation, the preliminary velocity feedback, and the PI controller, is obtained through the study of an adequate Lyapunov function. Finally, an estimate assessing the set point tracking performance of the left Neumann trace is derived.
Within the model of social dynamics determined by collective decisions in a stochastic environment (ViSE model), we consider the case of a homogeneous society consisting of classically rational economic agents (or homines economici, or egoists). We p resent expressions for the optimal majority threshold and the maximum expected capital increment as functions of the parameters of the environment. An estimate of the rate of change of the optimal threshold at zero is given, which is an absolute constant: $(sqrt{2/pi}-sqrt{pi/2})/2$.
The problem of controlling and stabilising solutions to the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation is studied in this paper. We consider a generalised form of the equation in which the effects of an electric field and dispersion are included. Both the feedbac k and optimal control problems are studied. We prove that we can control arbitrary nontrivial steady states of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation, including travelling wave solutions, using a finite number of point actuators. The number of point actuators needed is related to the number of unstable modes of the equation. Furthermore, the proposed control methodology is shown to be robust with respect to changing the parameters in the equation, e.g. the viscosity coefficient or the intensity of the electric field. We also study the problem of controlling solutions of coupled systems of Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equations. Possible applications to controlling thin film flows are discussed. Our rigorous results are supported by extensive numerical simulations.
